Pockets Grill in Smithville Texas, a great place for a fried pickle! - 10/31/07 06:02 AM
In Downtown Smithville Pockets Grill is the place to go for breakfast, dinner or early supper. They have one of the best burgers around but their crowning glory in my estimation is their fried pickles! This is a well loved and relaxed restaurant right on the corner of Loop 230 and (0 comments)

And then there were three sisters left....loosing a horse is always so traumatic! - 10/22/07 08:15 AM
Horse ownership is so rewarding but it can also be heartbreaking. I have owned my American Paint Horses for well over 12 years.
